Though a suburb of Bangalore its a mere country side station with no amenities- there's no proper entry or exit point for the station and the main building structure is just as much as a small ticket room- The platform is at a very low level and is not suitable for senior citizens as welll as people with luggage or children as getting down or boarding will be a major issue.
Station is not well lit except some points and the main road connections is almost a km away and will take minimum 10 mins to walk to the minimum stop. Theres no auto stand or pre-paid counter and autos charge exhorbitant rates
Carmelram

bus stop located a km away on Sarjapur Road provides the following connections
342 series buses- to WIPRO, Agara, Jakkasandra, Koramangla bus stand,Koramangla Water Tank, Dairy circle, Forum mall- 342H terminates at St. Johns Hospital- 342F runs to Majestic via Shantinagar bus stand. Major 342's run to k.R.Market

Even KJM station itself is waste. There are no rooms to sit. No annoucement made in proper time. Just imagine a pasenger sitting at PF 2 & 3 in biting cold in winter. Dogs freely roam about. When trains get delayed , no announcements are made

3. Take plenty of food pics and other safe pics.
4. Write human interest narratives to make the pics interesting.
5. Enjoy blogging and travelling SAFELY.

REMEMBER: YOUR LIFE is the most precious thing, NOT RailFanning.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
